Star Colonel Senza Oriega was a Bloodnamed Clan Jade Falcon MechWarrior during Operation REVIVAL.[1][2]
Contents
Description[edit]
Senza Oriega had a pale ghostlike complexion and was said to have one of the most admirable Codexs in the entire Jade Falcon Touman.[1]
History[edit]
Operation REVIVAL[edit]
During Operation REVIVAL, Senza was the commander for the Twelfth Falcon Regulars Cluster, the former command of Galaxy Commander Mar Helmer.[3]
Tukayyid[edit]
During the Battle Tukayyid, after the Falcon Guards and their commander Aidan Pryde secured Robyn's crossing, Senza Oriega demanded the right to cross the Prenzo Bridge first. She compared the long history of her unit to the dishonor attached to the Guards and their commander as an example of why they should cross. She instead offered the dezgra unit the chance to go second, which the Guards declined. She and her command began crossing the bridge, only to fall prey to ComGuard sappers that had rigged the bridge with explosives. Senza and her command then fell into the river.[4]
The Refusal War[edit]
As of September 3057, Senza Oriega was still in command of the 12th Falcon Regulars where she led her unit against the 352nd Assault Cluster on Colmar during the Refusal War.[5]
BattleMechs[edit]
Senza Oriega piloted an Executioner OmniMech during the Battle of Tukayyid.[4][6]
Notes[edit]
Star Colonel Oriega was reported to have died as she crossed the Prenzno River at Robyn's Crossing on Tukayyid[7][8] and was replaced by Brian Koga.[2] However, she was listed as still commanding the Twelfth Regulars in 3057, facing the Wolf Clan on Colmar during the Refusal War.[9] As The Falcon and the Wolf book is a later publication that the Jade Falcon Sourcebook, this article is written to show Senza surviving the fall into the river.
